Architect and Museographer
Set up in Milan in 2000 by the architect Luca Cipelletti, the AR.CH.IT studio deals with museums, exhibitions, buildings and interior design for private clients. Recent projects include the redevelopment of the Leonardo da Vinci National Museum of Science and Technology in Milan, where it previously carried out the restoration of the Cavallerizze pavilions, the masterplan for the external areas and the design of the Scala dei Chiostri, as well as new areas given over to exhibitions and education; the Palazzi dell'Arte Rimini, a new museum and sculpture garden dedicated to contemporary art in two medieval palaces; the Museo Archivio Bitossi Ceramiche in Montelupo Fiorentino (Florence); and the Shit Museum in Castelbosco (Piacenza). Luca Cipelletti has been Architectural Director of the Palazzo dell'Arte, home to Triennale Milano (1933, architect Giovanni Muzio) since 2019, where he is working on the renovation of the building as a whole, and on new exhibition and functional projects, such as CUORE, a recently opened archive and research centre, and the redevelopment of the park plan. He has been designing products and furnishing systems since 2018, represented by Galleria Giustini/Stagetti, Rome.
